2009 Recap of goals.

1.) Keep family first. August update. <span> </span>My son has received his certificate of citizenship, we are celebrating with family and friends on Saturday.<span> </span>Year end update.<span> </span>We had a wonderful Christmas 18 people for dinner, was a little hectic but we survived.

2.) Have a positive roi on OPR. August update.<span> </span>Currently about -3% abi 4.32, ITM 130/868 15% compared to last year -29% abi 4.59, ITM 12% 95/769.<span> </span>Year end update, didn’t reach this goal, but was definitely better than 2008.<span> </span>Still have a lot to learn.

3.) Get better at bank roll management. This will obviously help number 2. August update.<span> </span>So-So I'm grinding 1.10 45 man turbos trying to build a roll.<span> </span>Year End update.<span> </span>This is a perpetual goal, I dabbled in MTTs while trying to grind the 1.10s, will keep this goal for next year and beyond.

4.) Find out how the hell to improve my late stage MTT play. This is really a big one for me, can't seem to crack this code. Any helpful hints for late stage play would be appreciated. August update.<span> </span>I'm trying to give my self a chance to FT and hopefully get 1-3 place cause we all know that is where the money is.<span> </span>Year end update.<span> </span>I am definitely seeing improvement in this area which is boosting my confidence, now it’s all about volume in 2010.

5.) Be an ambassador for poker, take my bad beats without berating my fellow players, and give bad beats humbly and graciously. August update.<span> </span>Screw this my new salute when getting sucked out on is, NH pause Donk.<span> </span>Year End update.<span> </span>It’s definitely better to be nice in the chat, which I’m still working on.<span> </span>:)
